What do you think?

This is my second grow. 6 Plants, all into there 3rd week of Flowering. 2 Sour Diesel, 3 Strawberry Cough, and 1 personal blend.

I decided to top each plant many times. It has many grow points, but I wonder if I went too far. The stems are very long and I wonder if this is a good thing, or not. Please, judge it. But.... be gentle. :sad:

Looking splendid my friend! What lighting for veg? How far was the light from the canopy? Could be strain relevent if it's sativa... plus the normal stretch in early flower.....rihght where you're at now. They look healthy though! You should be fine. Peace
 
During Vegey I use a 600w MH. I keep them about 18-25 inches from the light. In my first grow I kept them closer, and the result was burnt leaves. Thank you for the reply.

Your biggest problem is going to be the branches falling over because of the weight. Look into some support for your girls.

Elsewise, keep doing what you're doing. Looking good +rep.

Not bad for your 2nd grow :) The stretch is normal for a few weeks after switching to 12/12. Keeping the light as close as possible and rotating the plants is critical during this period. Keep up the good work!
 
Guys thanx. Really. Its good to get positive feedback. The stretch thing is a concern. I didnt think it was a problem, until I rotated them, and my Sour(The tallest one) just start falling on me. I have tied the longest brances since, and I am trying to figure out what im going to do; once the colas start puffing up. My first harvest, I barely yielded anything off 2 plants, and I had to tie them up in many places. I can only imagine 6 plants, that have these many stems & branches. Guess its a good problem to have, lol.

PS -One more thing. How do you guys manage to grow in the Summer? Im from NYC. Average days are in the high 80's, low 90's. I got an A/C, blower, and fans going. Still cant get under 77 during the day. It can get up to 80. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
